    Need to see the leaves/foliage to decide, as well as knowing the height and spread (though a photo of the whole plant might make that clear) but note that,botanically, azalea as a term no longer exists, all are classified as Rhododendron. Is it in a pot or in the ground?

  • In the horticulture trade (in the US), rhododendrons that lose their leaves in the fall (deciduous) are still called azaleas; those that don't lose their leaves are called rhododendrons.

Counting the stamens (about 10) shows it is a Rhododendron. Azaleas have about 5. https://www.azaleas.org/azalea-basics/
